Micromon

About

This is an experiment to study Go and Microservices. This isn't meant to be practical, it's more about learning than anything. And it's also for the fun of it.

Components

Breed Service

• Stores the "Breed" information for each species of Pokemon.
• Uses BoltDB for Database

Move Service

• Stores the "Move" or Attack information
• Uses Vanilla Golang (map[string]pokemon.Move)

Pokemon Service

• Stores instantiated Pokemon (the ones that fight and grow)
• Uses Postgres (go-pg, protoc-go-inject-tag, and protobuf)
• Experiment based on this Medium Article

Gateway API

• Proxy for gRPC Services
• Uses gRPC-Gateway

Setup

This project runs in Docker Compose, and so a simple

git pull

and

docker-compose up

should do the trick
